Forbes, Frank Richards and Walter Langley. Some of the pages creased. First edition. The Yellow Book was a British literary periodical released quarterly between 1894 and 1897. It was a leading journal of the decade, with writers such as Kenneth Grahame, H. G. Wells, W. B. Yeats, Sir Edmund Gosse and Henry James contributing. The periodical was notable for publishing many female authors and illustrators within, including Ella D'Arcy, George Egerton, Ada Leverson and Ethel Reed. John Lane and Elkin Mathews, the founders of The Bodley Head, published this artistic and often controversial periodical. It differed from other contemporary periodicals by having no advertisements bar publishers' lists, and it was published clothbound. The Yellow Book became notorious when it was rumoured that Oscar Wilde, who never published within it but knew many people who had, was carrying a copy on his arrest at the Cadogan Hotel in 1895, although the veracity of this rumour has never been confirmed. Aubrey Beardsley was the original art editor of the work (1872-1898); he was an English illustrator who contributed to the development of the Art Nouveau style, known for his grotesque, decadent and erotic depictions inspired by Japanese woodcuts. Other illustrators within include Walter Sickert, Charles Conder and John Singer Sargent. First Edition, second issue; lacking the advertisements as called for in the first issue.
